Cresta Jameson Hotel.Cresta Jameson Hotel.
IntroductionIntroduction
A 3 star Hotel in the CBD of Harare.Host to 123 Guest Rooms, 5 conference centers,
2 magnanimous Kitchens, 3 Restaurants and a Banqueting Lounge.
Electricity charges are at an average $12 350/month.
Hotels are bracing for brisk business and therefore will do anything to increase profit and increase the quality of stay.
Problem StatementProblem Statement
Due to the continuous availability of electricity at the Hotel, little or no
attention has been accorded to the energy use patterns of the hotel. The energy usage is very high and
accounting for approximately 10% of the operating cost of the entire
hotel
AimAim
To carry out an energy audit and analyze energy management opportunities at Cresta Jameson Hotel
ObjectivesObjectives
To carry out an energy audit at Jameson Hotel;
Devise strategies and methods to increase the energy efficiency at Jameson Hotel based on the results of the audit.
Carry out an cost benefit analysis of the methods suggested.
Justification of the StudyJustification of the Study
Due to the continuous availability of electricity at the Hotel, little or no
attention has been accorded to the energy use patterns of the hotel. The energy usage is very high and
accounting for approximately 10% of the operating cost of the entire
hotel.
Literature ReviewLiterature Review
Types of Hotels
Global Energy Use Patterns
Energy Saving Opportunities in Hotels
Types of Energy Audits
LimitationsLimitations
Time Constraints since a huge project requires
longer periods.
Cash Constraints for travelling to and from
Harare.
MethodologyMethodology
Research Design was quantitative. The audit process was divided into 3 phases;
1. History Documents Review- to establish a trend of energy consumption using utility bills. Evaluation of the building envelope.
2.
Methodology…..ctdMethodology…..ctd
Walkthrough Energy Audit- was a tour of the facility checking the energy practices at the hotel. Then labeling according to estimated energy consumed.
Measurement Audit- with the aid of specific equipment as well as observation power ratings where recorded as specified by the manufacturer or when not available, tests where conducted.

RefrigerationRefrigeration
Use of strip curtains or plastic swing doors on cold stores;
Making sure that the doors of the cold stores are shut all the time;
Door Gaskets should be checked fortnightly;Use of CFL’s or LED lights and should be
switched off when closed;Refrigerators should not be overloaded.

Financial Benefit of OCMFinancial Benefit of OCM
Saving a average total of 55.982MWh a month represents 50.82% reduction.
The average energy bill will become approximately $6 174.63
This means energy costs will be 5% of the operating costs and even lower.
Conclusion and Recommendations Conclusion and Recommendations
Conclusions1. There is a huge potential in savings of even
more than 50.8% and therefore should be considered;
Recommendations Recommendations
Establishment of an Energy Management Team.Further research on Solar CoolingFurther research on Refrigeration.
